HELP WITH WISCONSIN EPSG PLEASE!

[chadgolf]

Bullete please try again and write a step by step guide on how you had to do what you did to make an ESPG fail and please post it here as an issue.

You’re the first to report that, and while ESPG guessing is a bad practice, that condition shouldn’t have happened and I don’t want other users to get caught up trying to do that process you mentioned every time - it really introduces the ability for people to make stupid mistakes.

I don’t think anyone can help you with what you posted jaywhyenecks

An EPSG code is a magic number that tells us where your lidar data is in the world and how it is turned into a flat map for the game to use.

80% of the time, we can struggle in software to find this automatically for you.  It might be in the lidar files, xml files, or even prj files.  Sometimes though, we can't figure it out automatically.

If you've ever seen the maps with Greenland and Alaska looking HUGE, then you know why we need these numbers.  Getting the right one means that your OpenStreetMap data projects correctly (in fact, is usable at all).

If you're loading new lidar data and you don't see the OpenStreetMap data you worked on, something is wrong.

If you're loading new lidar data and the sat preview pane doesn't show your golf course and you don't see your OpenStreetMap data, something is wrong.

There may be a few community members who can learn how to help identify these EPSG codes for the community, but for now, please make a new thread with the following information:

• Title: EPSG HELP: MY COURSE NAME
• The name of the course you're trying to make
• The City, State, and Country
• A link to where your lidar data could be found if possible, you could upload to Google Drive or Dropbox if you need to

Once this is done, volunteers can review the requests and try to find the correct EPSG code for your lidar.

I'm sorry Chad I couldn't reproduce the same behaviour.

I swear I tried all five EPSG values that are in the metadata one by one and none of them worked.

4083
25829
25830
25831
25828

The result was a dark blue square or another place that wasn't the course.

Then I tried closing the tool between tries and 25830 worked...

But today I'm trying to test that and it works everytime without closing the tool... weird.

I maybe made I mistake the first time or I don't know what could have happen.

I just want to say sorry for bothering you and I will delete my posts related to this "issue".

Thank you.
